That could be true but then there are other dominoes that could fall. As for the bullpen, you've got five locks, the way I see it:

Qualls
Gregerson
Neshek
Sipp
Fields

If you have a 12-man staff, and you keep Deduno, that leaves room for just one more among Will Harris, Joe Thatcher, Kevin Chapman, Darin Downs, etc. Chapman probably still has options but the others would probably be exposed.

As for the non-pitcher "logjam", Drellich sums it up very well here.
